Meet Stinkweed, Buttercup's Gloomy Twin

There are days I'd like to be Stinkweed, Buttercup's gloomy twin. But I fight that impulse, sometimes minute by minute. And despite the fact that I still haven't heard from either Martha or Rachel -- who are both missing out on a great audience guest -- I am not giving in to gloom. I will not, as one dear and gentle blog friend suggested, put a potato in the exhaust pipe of either Martha or Rachel. Stinkweed is sorely tempted, but not your Buttercup.

No gloom tonight. I am celebrating September, the glorious weather we are having and the fact that I found summer yogurt flavors of cantaloupe and watermelon at the grocery tonight.

Here's to sweet September, to the last lingering moments of summer and the joy of welcoming the beauty of the fall. Here's to autumn leaves and pumpkins, chrysanthemums and cranberries.

HI BUTTERCUP!!!!You are far to sweet and nice to be a stinkweed!!!I love fall too only here in the desert southwest we really do not have a typical Fall season, no falling gold, red and orange leaves, But I do vision it often!! Fall is my favorite season, I say that as we don't have it!!!! We can drive 2 hours north and see fall, so we usually do that!!!!I do love pumpkins, fallen leaves, cool morning air and coffee!!!!Have a blessed day, your e-mail or call from Martha and Rachael are coming, I jsut feel it!!!I will Pray about that!!!!hugs,jamie

Good for YOU for keeping that stinkweed out of your buttercup garden! I am constantly fighting briars trying to choke out Lilly!Martha? Rachel? What is your problem? You NEED a buttercup in your audience!May be in Jersey in 2-3 weeks, depending on how the hubby is feeling. Plan on spending at least 2 days in NY...maybe we can finally meet~Have a wonderful day!♥,Lilly
